Collingwood Basketball Association (CBA) was pleased to attend the Community Bank Clifton Hill-North Fitzroy (Clifroy) Annual General Meeting on Wednesday 11 November, joining local sporting clubs and community organisations that have benefited from the Bank’s ongoing support.
The evening was an opportunity to recognise the contribution Clifroy continues to make across Melbourne’s inner north, supporting programs and organisations that strengthen our local community.
In 2025/26, Clifroy contributed $385,149 through its community grants and sponsorship program, supporting 51 community partners. This included support towards CBA’s Community Development and Inclusion Program.
For CBA, this support helps reduce financial barriers to basketball participation, giving more children, young people and families the opportunity to be involved in the sport.
As a community basketball association, we see firsthand the difference that access to sport makes. Beyond the basketball court, participation creates opportunities for young people to build friendships, develop confidence and feel connected to their local community.
CBA Committee Member Rohan Lock and General Manager Shaun McEachin attended the AGM, joining Clifroy Limited Chair Robert Olney, Director Jenny Farrar, Community Liaison Officer Lee Chia and Branch Manager David Fielder.
We are grateful to be among the many organisations supported by Clifroy and recognise the important role the Bank plays in helping local clubs and community groups deliver their programs.
Congratulations to everyone appointed to the Clifroy Board, and thank you to the directors, staff, shareholders and customers whose contributions make this community investment possible.
We look forward to continuing our relationship with Community Bank Clifton Hill-North Fitzroy and working together to make basketball more accessible to our community.
